"All year long, we've been telling people: trust your eyes and ears. Trust the evidence in the public domain. And here are we yet again, with officials vacillating between professed horror and selective amnesia over obvious crimes." -- @gaslitnationpatreon.com/posts/tis-seas…
"All year long, we've walked the steady path of the truth while waves of propaganda washed up against us, trying to knock us down. Waves of propaganda from shark-infested waters. But the evidence was always clear." -- @gaslitnationpatreon.com/posts/tis-seas…
"You did not need a PowerPoint to see that this was a planned coup. You did not need new texts. You needed your eyes and ears. Because they live-streamed the coup. They aired it on TV. They planned it on the internet and confessed openly." -- @gaslitnationpatreon.com/posts/tis-seas…
"The reason you are confused is because a functional DOJ, a functional Congress, a government that cares whether or not the country it represents exists, would have done everything in its power to hold the coup architects accountable. Instead they've done little to nothing."
"After the 1/6 attack, most Americans wanted Trump convicted. So the Trump crime cult spent a full year running out the clock to scramble your memory and make you doubt yourself, make you doubt what you saw in real time. And now, thanks to no accountability, more support them."

"This is not just about Trump. This is not just about 1/6. This is about an entire apparatus and deep institutional rot and corruption that both facilitates this elite crime spree and embodies it." patreon.com/posts/tis-seas…
"These politicians and pundits are so disgraceful to pretend they just learn this. They have to keep playing with people's memories and sense of what's urgent to address. It's incredibly manipulative propaganda that taps into people's fears, especially their fear of abandonment."
"Merrick Garland refuses to prosecute the crimes outlined in the Mueller Report. Everyone should be extraordinarily alarmed that Garland refuses to act on since the report has been there the whole time." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnationpatreon.com/posts/tis-seas…
"Mueller, famously reticent, broke his silence to say to say 'Yes you can indict Trump when he leaves office.' Of course, they could have before, but Barr would have prevented it. There's nothing preventing it now, except Merrick Garland." -- @AndreaChalupa on @Gaslitnation
"I'm so sick of this cable news fantasy football league of lawyers who acted like Mueller was a big Marvel superhero and falsely promised justice. They've been pulling the same trick with Merrick Garland all year." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnationpatreon.com/posts/tis-seas…
This guy, who in addition to being a thief is accused of being a serial sexual predator, stole $70 million worth of antiquities with the help of organized crime. His only punishment, from Cy Vance, is a “lifetime ban” on acquiring new antiquities. He is 81 years old.
Russian oligarch partner Len Blavatnik, who gave the biggest donation to the DCCC in its history in 2019, has ramped up his donations to the Dems again -- particularly Pelosi. We discuss on this week's @gaslitnation
"Blavatnik is a business associate of sanctioned oligarchs Deripaska and Vekselberg. He is also a very close friend of Netanyahu. Blavatnik is part of the circle of oligarchs and corrupt international officials deeply tied to Trump and his crime cult." patreon.com/posts/time-to-…
"Blavatnik was born in the Soviet Union but has US citizenship, which makes it legal for him to give enormous campaign donations to US officials when sanctioned foreign oligarchs cannot." -- @gaslitnationpatreon.com/posts/time-to-…
In this week's @gaslitnation, we discuss threats toward House reps like AOC by violent GOP extremists like Paul Gosar and how the refusal of House leadership to swiftly and strongly take action has streamlined political violence patreon.com/posts/time-to-…
"GOP reps who applauded the 1/6 attacks and interacted with the attackers faced minimal consequences. Instead, Pelosi let them stay in office and continue attacks on congresswomen like AOC and Ilhan Omar, whom they stalk in the halls and threaten online." patreon.com/posts/time-to-…
"The threats that AOC and other female representatives of color get were always serious. The threats date back years and have increased in severity along with govt inaction. We are dealing with the prospect of assassination and we have a political climate which facilitates it."
